How to Apply Your Press-Ons
How to Apply Press-On Nails
BEFORE YOU START
For best results, apply to clean, dry nails. Avoid applying over damaged or irritated nails or surrounding skin.
1. PREP
Gently push back your cuticles and lightly buff the nail surface. Wipe each nail clean and make sure it is completely dry.
2. CHOOSE YOUR METHOD
Nail Tabs — 4–10 Days Wear
Choose the best-fitting tab for each nail and apply firmly. Warm the tab slightly with a hairdryer for better adhesion, then press the nail on firmly.
Nail Glue — 7–14 Days Wear
Apply a small amount of nail glue as directed, then press the nail firmly into place. Always follow the instructions provided with your nail glue.
3. PRESS & HOLD
Press each nail firmly for around 20–30 seconds. Use the pad of your finger rather than the fingertip for a stronger, longer-lasting hold.
4. AFTER APPLICATION
Avoid water, oils and heavy use of your hands immediately after application to give the adhesive time to set.
TIP: Proper prep and the right fit make the biggest difference to how long your press-ons last.
Do not apply press-on nails if your natural nails or the surrounding skin are cut, broken, sore or irritated. Wait until the area has fully healed before applying.
